I like hopping around, and don't have a large cash influx in my traveling --so for me so far favored spot is Bar B Barn with their included breakfast. White Sands beach side didn't do it for me. I used to love NBCC (condo side not Mariners) but outgrew that. Seastar rocks, but I need to be near the sea when I go, as in point my eyes in the direction and it is there. Back in the days when Catcha would harbor guests from seastar for the day, I fell in love with it. Too much $$$ for me though. And I have found I am a beach person, despite all of the associated tribulations. Country Country was fabulous--again the breakfast with lodging sells me--plus cool gardens and unique architecture. So I guess I can say I don't have a favorite go to spot yet. It is a wonderful work in progress. I can't wait to continue the research.
